Now if I wanted to purchase a small bottle of CBD oil at this same outlet, I will be asked to show my medical marijuana certificate. CBD oil will reduce inflammation and pain, relieve muscles spasms, has anti seizure properties, combats anxiety, and is a sleep aid.Â

No amount of CBD consumption will get a person high. So why does one need a special certificate to purchase a product which takes the pain away from my old body? Why does the government want to control oil from a plant used by the Chinese for over 5,000 years?
